[boost] Trying to get Boost.Python to build on Solaris 10 using SUN Studio 11

Good afternoon,
I've so far managed to make decent progress on building RC 1.34's
Boost.Python on this OS/Compiler combination using jam v1 with the
patches I submitted earlier.

Unfortunately I now seem to have hit a brick wall in file
pickle_support.cpp. The offending lines of code are line 57, which
reads:

    static object result(&instance_reduce);

If I replace this line with plain static object result; the file will
compile, however the above line produces the following error message
from the compiler:

sunpro-C++-action
bin/boost/libs/python/build/libboost_python.so/sunpro/debug/pickle_support.o
"./boost/python/converter/arg_to_python.hpp", line 215: Error: Could not
find
boost::python::converter::detail::arg_to_python_base::arg_to_python_base(boost::python::tuple(*)(boost::python::api::object), const boost::python::converter::registration) to initialize base class.
"./boost/python/object_core.hpp", line 309:     Where: While
instantiating
"boost::python::api::object_base_initializer<boost::python::tuple(*)(boost::python::api::object)>(boost::python::tuple(*const)(boost::python::api::object)&)".
"./boost/python/object_core.hpp", line 309:     Where: Instantiated from
non-template code.
1 Error(s) detected

I think I'm missing something obvious here but I'm not familiar enough
with the Boost.Python code to work out what it is.

I'd appreciate if someone who is would be able to have a closer look as
this is the last file that doesn't build here.

Regards,
Timo
